Migrant Health Newsline, Issue 1, 2013 by the National Center for Farmworker Health
How much do you know about your health center's Board of Directors? Do you know who makes up your health center board and what populations are represented? Your health center plays a vital role in the community it serves. Therefore, the members of a health center board should be a reflection of that community. As part of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Program Requirements, migrant and community health centers must have a farmworker representative on the board if that health center serves the farmworker community. Many benefits exist to having a farmworker board member. Although finding, recruiting, and keeping a farmworker representative on the board may sound like a difficult task, in this issue of Migrant Health Newsline, you will learn why this is so important, how it can be done successfully, and you will read about a health center's efforts to do just that.
This website and training material were developed to give communities and promotores ways to help farm workers learn how to protect themselves from pesticide exposure.
The project and all materials on the website were developed by the California Poison Control System in collaboration with the the Western Center for Agricultural Health and Safety at the University of California, Davis and the California Department of Pesticide Regulation.

This is a nice example of a screen shot for documenting self-management goals in EHR and the kind of thing centers want to see as they develop their tools. This can be adapted any number of ways.
OneWorld Community Health Center created a demographic extended table and put it in on a medical record pop-up template for tracking self management goals. This grid can be displayed on other templates or the popup can be launched from other templates depending on the workflows.
